We started the day with “breakdowns”… an exhaust crack and a chopper bearing went out. By the time the temperature was close to 95 and the winds picked up, we were back going.
By tomorrow evening, things will be close to wrapped up here in South Dakota and then we will clean up and move home.
Shout out to JR Edmondson for the photos! And to CASEIH PRO HARVEST! Special thanks to Robert and to Grant for making the trip.
Elevator is in Gordon, Nebraska.
The “weeds and bugs” were hanging around my bin line and I think they are amazing!
Tonight’s supper: Cheeseburger deluxe with potatoes and strawberry shortcake Yeap…that’s supper just before loading for field delivery.
Nancy has been making the custom harvest journey with her husband, Myron, since 1982. In those early years of life on the road, she could be found in the combine or truck - along with any or all of their four children. These days, her time is mostly spent taking care of two campers, walking to the clothesline and back, cooking on the grill, paperwork in the office and windshield time in the cab of a pickup. Whatever it takes to “get ‘er done”! When Myron and Nancy aren't on the road, they call South Heart, North Dakota home.
